Biography
Emmet Granger was born in Oklahoma, and he took part in the 1882 Beaver Brook massacre, the 1886 Laidlaw family disappearance, and the 1890 Chaparral killings. However, he decided to cooperate with the government to get a pardon, serving as a witness for the Fosse gang's trial and being pardoned in 1895. He moved to a hog farm in rural Oklahoma, where he lived in peace until 1899, when the author Theodore Levin sent the outlaw Arthur Morgan to interview Granger. Granger was upset that the book that Levin was writing was about Jim Boy Calloway and not about him, and he only told Morgan stories about himself; he told him to shovel manure in exchange for his story about Calloway. When Granger refused to talk about Calloway, Morgan blew up Granger's manure shed, coating Granger in manure and angering him. Granger challenged Morgan to a duel, but Morgan killed him and photographed his body, sending it to Levin; Levin attributed Granger's death to Calloway in his book.
